I dont know how to rate this but i will give it a chance because Soderbergh has been known to make a great movie...from time to time.

Wait is it actually based on his early life? was he in fact an exotic dancer before becoming an "actor"? cause thats what it makes it sound like, either way I'll prolly pass anyway.

I cannot wait to see this. Soderbergh with Channing Tatum and Alex Pettyfer... hope he can get them to act. I'm excited either way because of the concept, could do without McConaughey though... either way, Tatum and Pettyfer are pure eye candy :)
